Branding + Logo Design

It's the signature that connects you to the world. To be effective it must be memorable, original and undeniably you. It must say at a glance, "this is us and nobody else." Ask yourself how your brand is perceived? Are you skilled and professional or sloppy, disorganized and second rate? An instant after seeing your logo, people will make that decision. At Modern, we carefully mold perceptions to show your best self. Our strategic branding solutions emerge from thorough research to ensure that your logo is a direct outgrowth of who you are and who you aspire to be.

Web Development

Smart websites balance content, aesthetics, information architecture and function. They must also integrate smoothly with your larger branding and communication program. We work hard to build websites that are easy to manage, scalable and compliant with development standards. Your website should be your hardest worker, selling and informing 'round the clock.

Our site team is skilled in standards compliant HTML/CSS development, Flash, JavaScript and content management systems. For largescales sites, we work with programmers in PHP, ASP, Coldfusion, AJAX and others as required.

Print Marketing + Advertising

Print remains fundamental. It's personal qualities are impossible to match online. Companies who eliminate their print marketing in favor of purely online activities are finding they hurt their reputations. Even Internet enterprises are investing in their printed image. Whether you have a longstanding reputation or are just establishing one, print has power. Taking the time to tell your story on paper is a rite of passage for most companies — one with lasting rewards. If you're looking for the fastest road to credibility, print delivers!

Corporate Communication

From annual reports to announcements, environmental initiatives, unity campaigns, community interfacing, political awareness, customer care programs, benefits education and more, we've helped organizations of all kinds support their mission, express their aspirations and energize their workforce. We help companies maximize their brand potential by ensuring employees are brand advocates.

Signage and Environments

Signs and interior spaces like lobbies and conference rooms cast powerful perceptions that are often at odds with company marketing and brand objectives. Often viewed as luxuries, they are fundamental to strengthening an employee's sense of place. Signs say more than "we are here." Signs should say, "we are here to stay." Most don't. We work with executive teams to help them create workplaces that lift spirits, express confidence and reinforce central marketing messages that have durability beyond any individual campaign.
